[ATTW-L] Corbett Lecture by Rebecca Walton at Ohio State on March 5, 2020

[Buehl, Jonathan]

If you are located in or near central Ohio, please consider attending the annual Corbett Lecture on the Columbus campus of the Ohio State University. Professor Rebecca Walton<https://techcomm.usu.edu/faculty/walton> (Utah State University) will deliver a lecture titled "Lived Experience as Knowledge Making: Recognizing and Revealing Injustice in Sites of Work" on Thursday, March 5 at 4:00 p.m. in 311 Denney Hall. The following abstract offers a preview of what promises to be an important and engaging talk:

In Technical Communication after the Social Justice Turn: Building Coalitions for Action, Walton and her co-authors Kristen Moore and Natasha Jones develop a four-part heuristic for enacting social justice in sites of work: 1) recognize injustice, 2) reveal it to others, 3) reject the unjust practice, process, or behavior, and 4) work with others to replace it. In this year's Corbett Lecture, Walton will share findings from narrative-based inquiries about the processes of recognizing and revealing. How do people recognize injustice in their sites of work? What signals injustice to those who recognize it as such? How do people reveal that injustice to others? What strategies do they use? What does revealing injustice at work actually look like in practice?

The Corbett Lecture was established in 1999 through the generosity of the estate of Professor Edward P.J. Corbett. Recent Corbett Lectures have been delivered by Anis Bawarshi (2011), Arabella Lyon (2012), Margaret Price (2014), Jonathan Alexander (2015), Carmen Kynard (2016), Asao Inoue (2017), Karma Chávez (2018), and Natasha Jones (2019).
